You know what this place could use? A nightclub.

Don't get me wrong, I like Good Spirits a lot, but you can't exactly go there for dinner and dancing. The pizzeria seems like it has room for musicians, but pizza's not exactly ritzy. Sometimes you just want to go somewhere nice and hear a good band, you know? Putting a Tex Beneke record on just isn't the same.

It wouldn't even have to be dance music all the time, either. Just some piano music, like--oh, what's his name--Chopin plays would be nice. We probably don't have enough musicians here to make a full-sized band anyway.

I'm not asking for the Stork Club here--Lord knows I wouldn't get in if I was--but there oughta be something else to do here at night. For the most part, this place is great, but it's kind of a one-horse town when it comes to entertainment.

Sounds a little more like a pub to me. [Of which she has some experience, albeit not a great amount.]

This is more like...I don't know, say you had a girlfriend, and you wanted to take her somewhere nice on a date. You'd go to a nightclub--well, maybe when you were a man, you would. Probably oughta stick to ice cream parlors and soda fountains for now. Anyway, if you wanted to get dressed up, show her a good time, this is where you'd go.

[And Hiccup can't help but think about taking Astrid to a place like this--but that brings up other thoughts he's been worrying about. He hasn't seen her in four months. Could he even still call her his girlfriend?

...Moving on.]

I see. Yeah, vikings definitely did not have anything like that.

Well, it'll be a brand-new experience for you, then. [Aw, Hiccup, you could bring your girlfriend! If she was here! Poor kid.] It sounds like it might really shape up into something.

Yeah? Well, I'll help out if you think there's a way I could. I don't play in instrument or dance or...yeah. But...let me know.

If you like music any, you'll be a big help just coming and listening. [And then, sounding a bit amused:] Or if you can find a book on how to dance at the library, that's always an option.

[dragoneer]

Well, listening I can do. Count me in. [And who knows, maybe he'll find someone to teach him something someday.]

As for the dancing...Iiiii think I'll hold of on that. But thanks for the suggestion.

Probably better to find a nice girl to show you how. [You're a cute kid, Hiccup, why don't you have a steady, et cetera.] Until then, listening's plenty.

voice;

[dragoneer]

Ahhh...right. I'll, um. Get on that. [Aaaand he's filing away that thought for now.]

Any idea when you'll have things up and running?

voice;

[poorneedyand.livejournal.com]

No clue. But once there's a set date [you know, if it really does get off the ground] I'm sure there'll be announcements.

Sounds great. I'll just keep an eye--er. An ear, I guess--out for it.
